According to Coinmarketcap.com, Ethereum is now worth US$392 billion compared to Bitcoin’s US$1 trillion.
In this article, I’ll explore the gains that Ethereum has made on Bitcoin and whether they could continue.
If both coins were to continue gaining at their current rates, Ethereum would eclipse Bitcoin’s market cap in under two years.
So, ultimately, it’s impossible to say which cryptocurrency will be king of the castle in a year.
If you’d like to profit from both Bitcoin and Ethereum without having to choose between them, you could consider investing in mining stocks — companies that make money by mining crypto.
Not only does this lower costs, but it also lessens the environmental impact of mining — a factor that ESG investors might be interested in.
This makes its stock a decent way to play the cryptocurrency craze without having to choose one coin over the other.
